Unknown Soldier of Every War

I'm always profoundly affected by the stories of soldiers. Imagine being separated from everyone and everything you ever knew and loved, to fight for something you may believe in or not, to the point of profound suffering or death. I can't. I will never have to be a soldier.So this is my contribution, however small, in memory of the men and women who have fought in every war, or are fighting one now.

About Me

Currently living in small-town southern Ontario, 6000km away from my partner and our enormous cat Mumford who are in Whitehorse, Yukon. I'm discovering the ups and downs of a long-distance relationship while learning how to master the craft of writing (both equally challenging in their own very different ways).
